Exploring the Types of Roof Warranties

Before purchasing a new roof, it’s important to know the warranty options. Roof warranties generally come in two main types:

  • Material Warranties: Manufacturers typically offer these warranties, covering defects in the materials like shingles and underlayment.
  • Workmanship Warranties: Labor warranties cover installation issues and are offered by the roofing professionals.

Certain warranties combine both material and labor coverage, offering full protection for homeowners.

Why Choose A-Abel’s Roof Warranties?

At A-Abel Roofing, we ensure you’re covered with reliable warranties. As certified installers of Owens Corning shingles, we offer premium material warranties, which include:

  • Essential Warranty: Protects you from material defects for a specific duration.
  • Extended Protection Plans: This warranty offers additional coverage, including wind damage and resistance to algae growth.

These warranties are backed by our labor coverage, ensuring your roof is installed correctly and with quality craftsmanship.



Why You Should Register Your Roof Warranty

Homeowners often need to register their warranties after installation. This registration can bring additional perks, such as:

  • Additional Coverage: Registration can extend coverage, offering enhanced terms.
  • Ownership Confirmation: By registering, you streamline the claims process and prove ownership.

We assist with the registration process to ensure you get the full benefit of your warranty.

Warranties and Home Sales: Transferring Coverage

If you plan to sell your home, transferring your roof warranty can add value. Most warranties allow a one-time transfer to the new homeowners, but conditions like:

  • Transfer fees or required notification can apply when transferring the warranty.
  • Time limits, such as transferring within the first year of homeownership.

Talking with your contractor about the transfer process will help protect your warranty’s value.
